Someone has to pay for the bailouts to the ultra-rich, right?

That's the same old socialist faux economics that kept The Great
Depression going and gave us such lovely laws, and sustaining Supreme
Court rulings, as farmers prohibited from growing excess crops on
their own land for their own consumption because it 'might potentially
interfere' with the Fed's manipulation of the markets.

I could go down the points one by one but do you want to know the
"real" problem? Governments CAN NOT 'manage' economies and economic
outcomes. I don't care what 'problems' you claim exist, government is
simply incompetent to the task.

And that's without even getting to the principle that his is supposed
to be a "free" country and not one governed by mob rule.

Between big government and the Mafia, I think I'd rather the Mafia - at
least when you pay the Mafia protection money, you actually _get_
protection!

And that's notwithstanding the Mafia doesn't throw you into an iron
cage to punish you for gambling, getting high, or getting laid.

Cheers!
